What Causes White Discharge From Anus?

Hi, I have two questions. For a couple of years I have been finding white discharge coming from my butthole. I was wondering what this means, or if it means I have a parasitic infection. Also, for a few years I've had this white crust/dry skin on the backs of my ears. I had eczema patches on my scalp when I was a kid, so I was wondering if it was that.

Dear friend,first of all thank you for your consultation.from my day to day clinical practice I believe that white discharge that are coming from your anus is of eczema origin.I sincerely believe that because you had eczema before,so there is every possibility that it was not completely cured.anus ,being a place where fecal matter comes in touch with skin has a tendency to host such chronic infection like eczema.so what you should go is to go to your dermatologist and take antibiotic for this .my best wishes for you.thank you.
